Watch, act and save!
After two months with Amber Electric I'm ecstatic with the outcome! Our property has two dwellings on two and a half acres with six adults living here full time. The main house has five bedrooms, four bathrooms and the main living rooms have a 14.4kw electric in slab coil heating. The second dwelling is a two bedroom cottage. There's two each electric ovens, cooktops and electric off peak hot water services plus multiple split system A/C units. The climate here is sub Alpine with maximum daytime winter temperatures constantly in the single digits. The property obviously has peak power usage during winter, so the last two months usage is indicative of my expected future savings. Being retired makes it easy for me to monitor the Amber App and adjust the timing of appliance usage accordingly, particularly during any price spikes. Compared to my previous energy provider, PowerShop (who have a superb App and customer service), Amber Electric has saved me more than $200 for May and again more than $300 for my latest June Bill. I expect the savings to be even greater during the two coldest months of July and August. I find the daily routine of monitoring the usage and wholesale price variations using the Amber App quite addictive and thoroughly enjoyable! Cheers, Tom Black Hill
